In mitosis, daughter cells are exactly like the parent cell (identical copies).

In meiosis, daughter cells are different but similar in the fact that the chromosomes have undergone crossing over, giving genetic variability. Thus producing a "recombined" daughter cell and essentially not identical to the parent cell.

In mitosis if a parent cell has 16 chromosomes each daughter cell will have 8 chromosomestrue or false?

False. Each daughter cell would have 16 chromosomes just like the parent cell after mitosis.


In mitosis how does a daughter cell compare with its parent cell?

A daughter cell and its parent cell are exact copies of each other.


How many chromosomes does the daughter cell get from the parent cell?

In mitotic cell division, the daughter cells contain the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. In meiotic cell division, the daughter cells contain half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.


How do the daughter cells at the end of mitosis and cytokinesis compare with their parent cell when it was in?

The two daughter cells that result from mitosis are diploid just like the parent cell. The daughter cells have the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. In meiosis, 4 daughter cells result each with half the number of chromosomes that the parent cell had and are therefore called haploid.


How are daughter and parent cells alike?

Daughter and parent cells are alike in that they both contain genetic material and are part of the same cell division process. Daughter cells are formed from the division of parent cells and generally inherit similar characteristics from the parent cell.


How are daughter cells different from parent cell?

because daughter cell goes to partys and parent doesnt


How are daughter cells different then the parent cell?

Daughter cells are smaller in volume than the parent cell. This is because they split the cytoplasm of the parent cell during cytokinesis.


What is a parent cell to the daughter cells?

the parent cells DNA is transferred into a new cell every time and the daughter cell is a cell that is splitted into two and are identical to each other


What size of daughter cell relative to parent in mitosis?

In mitosis, the daughter cells are genetically identical to the parent cell and are typically the same size as the parent cell. During the process, the parent cell duplicates its genetic material and then divides its cytoplasm, resulting in two daughter cells that retain the characteristics of the original cell. Thus, the size of the daughter cells remains comparable to that of the parent cell.


Which chromosomes are found in a daughter cell?

A daughter cell will typically contain a full set of chromosomes that are a combination of the parent cell's chromosomes after cell division. The exact number and composition of chromosomes will depend on whether the cell underwent mitosis or meiosis.


How are daughter cells like the parents cells?

In mitosis, daughter cells are exactly like the parent cell (identical copies). In meiosis, daughter cells are different but similar in the fact that the chromosomes have undergone crossing over, giving genetic variability. Thus producing a "recombined" daughter cell and essentially not identical to the parent cell.


How does the number of chromosomes in the daughter cell compare with those in the parent cell?

The number of chromosomes in the daughter cell is typically the same as in the parent cell after cell division. This ensures that each daughter cell receives an identical set of chromosomes.
